I have been making this recipe since it appeared in the RSVP section of Bon Appetit years and years ago. It is absolutely delicious and I have shared this recipe more times than I can count over the years. Understand that I am not a particularly gifted cook (this is one of about five things I make) and it comes out perfect every time. Paired with crusty bread - this is dinner. The best mushroom soup recipe I have ever tasted.
